I am always fighting with mirrors. I supect it is because I am in Sweden and I get sent to bad local mirrors.
I have pretty much the same problem when getting packages in Chile.. for some ill-advised reason mirrorbrain thinks it should go to brazillian mirrors to get content.. this is most of the time slow and unreliable ..something that is completely expected and unsurprising. I understand mirrorbrain is not a person and does not get internet geopolitics or economics, it should ignore that mirror and go first to the US based mirrors then to the EU. kernel.org is a good bet. ISPs buy bandwidth to places where people get content from, not because the proximity of a country.;)
It would be great if it was possible to override the geolocation somehow. Mirrorbrain locates me in the US, so upgrades to my NL system take a transatlantic roundtrip, while much faster mirrors are available in DE.
then manually choose the mirror(s) you prefer in the order you prefer, ie: baseurl=http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/linux/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://suse.mobile-central.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/non-oss/ http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
